Vermont Vacation Wanderings...Hiking and Sightseeing Vermont Sept 2008

On Monday, we drove to Pinnacle Rock. It was pouring when we got there so Ed and Ava took a nap and I climbed into the back of the Rav and knit some socks. We even ate our lunch in the car. It finally stopped raining and we were off on our short little hike. Ava had a lot of fun and she was very well behaved on her first real hike.

The next day, Tuesday, we drove to New Hampshire. I wanted to go to Patternworks -- a knitting shop that sends me a mail order catalog. I didn't realize until this year that they are a storefront too! So since we were going to be kinda in the area (i.e. in New England), we planned a ride over there. It was hours away and we went to Castle in the Clouds first. Other than the view of the waterfall and lunch, it was a little on the lame side mostly because we were deceived into thinking that even though we couldn't bring Ava into the castle, that we would at least be able to see the castle from the outside. That never happened. We couldn't even walk up to anywhere there was a possible view of the castle with Ava. So we left.

But I did get to spend some time at Patternworks where I bought some knitting bags and some more sock yarn. One day I will post pictures of the socks I have knit. But for now, it will just be dogs and the occasional cat :-)
